We are from the north and moved here 6 years ago after lifestyle visits. We are 76 now and active year round. You will meet residents who are 90s and 100s here. I highly recommend renting for 3 or more months to feel the politics, traffic, medical services, and area you prefer to live in. We are non golfers with other hobbies and are busy all the time. No basements here and lots of electrical storms in some locations. Hurricanes usually fizzle out before they reach us. We found good medical care but had to work for it. Btw, we chose the south side and love it. Sumter County for lower taxes and near Leesburg hospitals.
